Another thing that I really like about the split-fire DS compared to the Radikal are the axles. I run a front Radikal and I love it, but it annoys the hell out me that the outer bearing is riding partially on the threaded part of the axle. Also I'm always paranoid that an axle is going to back out s...

I would recommend getting a splitfire DS (as opposed to the original splitfire). In my opinion this is the most versatile truck on the market due to the fact that it fits with any Randal baseplate. I run it in the rear with a 35 degree Randal baseplate, and this setup gives more traction than the TT...
